Signet ring octagon w/ Malaya Garnet
Classic in form, extraordinary in detail. This signet ring with an octagonal top plate unites timeless elegance with a rare treasure: a 1.8 carat Malaya garnet in radiant cut, whose warm colour nuances shimmer between soft pink, peach, and coral. The clean, linear edges of the octagonal surface transition seamlessly into the smooth polished band - a design that merges strength and sophistication. The untreated gemstone comes directly from our Tanzanian friends in Morogoro and was verified by gemologists in Zurich. A ring that writes history before you even put it on. Crafted in 925 sterling silver with germanium for enhanced tarnish resistance.
